Hi Florian

The issue here is the missing PHY ID in the secondary PHY. Because of
that, the secondary does not probe in the normal way. We need the
primary to be involved to some degree. It needs to register it. What
i'm not so clear on is if it just needs to register it, or if these
sub nodes are actually needed, given the current code.
